Start Asterisk at boot?

Hello, I am running a SuSe 9.3 server. That have Asterisk. Asterisk are working fine/perfect. But what I want to do is to make it start up at boot.

When I have started the computer can I type:
sudo /root/Asterisk-1.0.8/Asterisk

And it goes of. No problem.
But I want it to do that by itself at start up. And as easy as possible so my first thoug was why not put in a script in: /etc/init.d/boot.local?

There did I write:
sudo /root/asterisk-1.0.8/Asterisk
rootpasswd

That dident work as I did think. The Asterisk was succesfully run but it dident manged to get out to the network. Because it had been exicuted before the network card was loadet. So I had to restart Asterisk and then did it work. But I dident work at startup.

I have been trying to place the script in the different placed as rc3.d that loads with the nettwork card and as S99Asterisk so it loads last. But it dosent work. Maybe bacause it do only write this:
sudo /root/asterisk-1.0.8/Asterisk
rootpasswd

But I dont know how to write a good boot script. If someone could help me out here. Would I be extremly happy. Smilie

Thanks for taking your time reading this.
NB: I know I have to many spelling errors.

AUTOSUPPORT(8)						     Linux Programmer's Manual						    AUTOSUPPORT(8)

NAME
autosupport -- interactive script to provide Digium[tm]'s support with information SYNOPSIS
autosupport [OPTION] [prefix] DESCRIPTION
autosupport is a script that is normally run by a user contacting Digium's Technical Support to automate gathering support information. It will probe the system for some run-time and system information, and generate a backup of Asterisk related configuration. An optional param- eter for a prefix may be specified which is typically used to specify a Digium Technical Support Ticket ID. The script requires root privileges to run, and writes all output in the home directory of the user running the script. For the purposes of this document, this will be referred to as /root/ henceforth. The system information is written to /root/digiuminfo.txt and the backup of configuration (and the system information file) are written to a tarball in /root/ with a base name of digium-info. A Date Stamp will be appended, and if specified the optional parameter will be a pre- fix. The tarball at least is expected to be attached to a support ticket with Digium. OPTIONS
Arguments: prefix Used to prefix the file names. Typically a Digium Technical Support Ticket ID Options: -n, --non-interactive Run without requiring user input -h, --help Show help about options FILES
